The work presented in this paper, proposed a new method for calculating short circuit current for different asymmetrical faults in the network. Different models of MOV are considered in the study. Based on the investigations, appropriateness of the proposed method has been justified.","PeriodicalId":247669,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE PES Asia-Pacific Power and Energy Engineering Conference (APPEEC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129106402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But the interpretation of FRA plots still needs a higher level of expertise to identify and quantify faults as there is no FRA interpretation code widely accepted yet. Currently only magnitude plot is used for detection of the fault using FRA. This work presents an approach of FRA signature interpretation for identifying the location of inter-disk short circuit fault in transformers by using polar plot along with bode plot. Inter-disk short circuit fault across HV side was simulated and bode plot and polar plot of the transfer function was studied. Two parameters, Area parameter and magnitude corresponding to the point at last resonance where the phase of transfer function becomes 180° for the first time were identified. An equation was formed with which, the location of the fault can be identified using area parameter obtained.","PeriodicalId":247669,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE PES Asia-Pacific Power and Energy Engineering Conference (APPEEC)","volume":"41 6","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114010998","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But, active detection scheme deteriorates the power quality (PQ) of a system. In this study, a CWT based detection scheme is used to obtain time-frequency localization of the islanding situation as well as PQ disturbances in a DG interfacing inverter system.

The presented actuator design consists of a regular non-magnetic spherical rotor with impeded magnetic dihedral cones. Air core coils are carried on the internal surface of the spherical stator. The actuator design procedures are proposed, considering the optimal design parameters, to achieve the maximum output torque with specified position angles.

For conventional converters, capacitor charge balancing is not a huge problem. Only the load ripple current flows through the DC link capacitor. Main load current doesn't affect the capacitor and it flows through the DC bus. For a MMC, charge balancing of all the module capacitors is a complicated task as the full load current flows through all the modules when MMC is operational. The module capacitors get charged and discharged very rapidly. Few charge balancing algorithms are already proposed in the literature. They have some disadvantages due to high execution time and complexity, as number of modules need to be inserted or bypassed is calculated in every step of operation. In this paper a simplified charge balancing algorithm is proposed depending upon the phase disposition modulation technique. In the proposed algorithm there is no need to calculate the number of modules that need to be inserted or bypassed during every step of operation. In addition, gate signals are given to the module switches directly. The new technique is fast and less complex. A nine level modular multilevel converter is simulated using the proposed algorithm in Matlab Simulink environment. All simulation results are presented in the paper.","PeriodicalId":247669,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE PES Asia-Pacific Power and Energy Engineering Conference (APPEEC)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132756880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite high estimation complexity, EKF shows better transient and steady state responses over the wide speed and torque ranges. However, the rotor flux variation as speed changes is controlled by introducing a proportional integral (PI) regulator in flux path. Implementation of the field oriented control of IM drive in the proposed sensorless environment is carried out in Matlab/Simulink.

To enhance the power supply performance in payloads, an indigenous 24W isolated space qualified DC-DC converter with planar magnetics has been realized as a Hybrid Micro Circuit. Weight of the converter realized is 110 grams' and efficiency up to 80% across all loading conditions has been achieved. Design of converter incorporates critical safety features like inrush current limiter, over current and over voltage protection, which are required for high-reliability space borne applications.
